[00:12.93]the lady who works at the silver store
[00:19.65]is polishing cases of glass
[00:26.05]she brushes black velvet
[00:29.40]straightens still more
[00:32.97]and waits while the people all pass
[00:39.22]mmm mmm mmm mmm
[00:52.28]the lady who works at the silver store
[00:58.79]is gazing out onto the street
[01:05.48]her heels on thick carpet
[01:08.55]her eyes on the poor
[01:11.39]as they balance on fragile feet
[01:18.59]jewelry from Arabia and African lands
[01:25.15]the riches of Asian and Mexican hands
[01:31.22]they will dazzle the hearts of the merchants of dreams
[01:38.17]and bond so much more than they seem
[01:44.98]mmm mmm mmm mmm
[01:57.84]the lady who works at the silver store
[02:04.24]unmoved by the world out there
[02:10.78]some sell her their lives
[02:13.85]some buy her dreams
[02:17.48]while everyone longs for her care
[02:24.16]mmm mmm mmm mmm
